On his butterfly/angel attack, I used shield (Z on wiimote nunchuck) while standing in the middle of the stage and was able to get back on the stage with metaknight. This was with around 50% damage done to me.

Thanks, I'm hearing all this talk about the stickers and what not and I'm pretty clueless to what those are even for. I thought they were there just as an achievement type deal. This is my first Brawl game, so bare with me.....
